Woodstock is one of the fastest growing towns in Cherokee County, Georgia. Money Magazine named Woodstock one of the top 50 places to live in the U.S. and it’s not hard to see why. There’s so much to see and do in this very walkable community.
Trails for walking, biking, and more
Beginning on Market Street in downtown Woodstock, the Noonday Creek Trail is a 1.43-mile paved trailed that meanders by our Woodstock community, 28 & Mill, on its way to Woofstock Park, an off-leash dog park, and intersecting with the Towne Lake Pass Trail. Both trails are a part of the Greenprints Trail System, a network of trails and open space throughout the Woodstock area. The trail system is great for walking, running, biking, and more.
Mountain bikers will appreciate the Taylor Randahl Memorial Bike Trails at Olde Rope Mill Park. The three trails, divided into 10 loops, were designed specifically for mountain bikes. Hikers are welcome but must go in the opposite direction of the bikes. Trail direction is determined by the day of the week.
An entertaining downtown
Downtown Woodstock is a hub of activity. Residents enjoy concerts and movies in the park, parades, festivals, and annual events like the July 4th Spectacular, Kidsfest on Halloween, and the Christmas Jubilee.
There are several entertainment venues in Woodstock. The Elm Street Cultural Arts Village produces live theater, MadLife Stage & Studios hosts live musical performances, and the Northside Hospital-Cherokee Amphitheater at The Park at City Center is home to the city’s annual summer concert series.
The free summer concerts are held at 7:30 p.m. on the second Saturday of every month from May to September. There’s even a free shuttle to the concert, although, the park is within walking distance of 28 & Mill.
Our Woodstock community is just two blocks from Main Street downtown. The FoxTale Book Shoppe and Morgan Ace Hardware are nearby as are several restaurants including Ipp’s Pastaria & Bar, Reel Seafood, Copper Coin Coffee, Century House Tavern, and Fire Stone Wood Fired Pizza & Grill.
Also nearby is the Farm. Fresh. Market., Woodstock’s farmers market. It’s located on Market Street, near the Noonday Creek Trailhead, and is open from 8:30 a.m. to noon on Saturdays, April through December.
All aboard the Woodstock Trolley
Getting around Woodstock is easy, either by foot, by wheels, or by trolley. The free Woodstock Trolley runs from The Park at City Center and stops at the shops on Mill and Main Streets, the college, library, brewery, community church, and outlets. The tour runs 30 minutes. It’s another great way to see the city.
But don’t take our word for it. Come see Woodstock for yourself. We invite you to visit us at 28 & Mill while you’re here.
